Hydrosilex Recharge

nano/hydrophobic stuff has tiny amounts of a cheap active ingredient and a small amount of a common emulsifier and are vastly water. Except for the marketing additives, they are ALL basically hair conditioner. Dimethicone/Simethicone plus emulsifier.

The cheapest hydrophobic stuff is SiO2 silicon dioxide - sand/glass - fumed in a plasma torch and attached to a polymer polydimethyl to make polydimethylsiloxane $10 for 8 oz at amazon. PDMA common names are dimethicone or Simethicone.
 
It will be interesting to see what people on here think about it. It was brought up on another forum and had almost all less than favorable comments.
I think a product that kinda bursts on the scene via marketing overexposure suffers a bit, be it good, bad or `meh`...the Topcoat F11 effect.

I think lots folks just jump on the bandwagon as well even if they`ve never even used the product in question.

Angelwax just made their new Enigma AIO available and it`s already being crowned by some as the most wonderful AIO ever developed, the HD Speed slayer. It may turn out to be but who knows yet...too early . But yet the proclamations of best in class continue to build.
 
Hydrosilex is definitely over hyped. The first version didn’t last worth a darn. Good thing I was only out $10. It’s now in the possession of another member.

I believe that would be me. But I agree wholeheartedly. Definitely overhyped and I wouldn`t consider buying it.

I was talking to some rep of Angelwax last weekend on a car meet. Unfortuneally the bottles of Enigma AIO was sold out. As I thought first it was a primer polish för the Enigma Wax. And they claimed that is was just the kind of sio2 and polymers in the AIO. You can use as a primer to Enigma Wax without any prep between wax and AIO. The Enigma AIO on it`s own has a claim of at least 3 months longevity. And with the use of Enigma QED and Enigma car soap I think it`s well possible to stretch it.

It happens to be the same distribution of Angelwax also sells Hydrosilex. They talked about how great it was. But when I asked about if it was the first batch of it. Which had big problems with beeing applyied wet. They just looked at me and looked away. And when I asked about the difference to the other spray on rinse off coating like Wet Coat. They said it could be applyied dry. I asked about the difference to the reload and cure and those. And did got and good answers other than it`s a great product. Sure it`s a pricey but there is better ones. The versitale application was the onlybenefit I got out of that discussion.
 
I`m not going to complain about only spending $10 on it. It`s just ok performance wise. Extremely easy to apply.
